The Rev Hugh o. Pentecost, who has distin-
guished himself during the last year by his rabid
advocacy OF the doctrine OF land connscation, and
within few months scandalized his congregation
by pronouncing panegyrfc on the hanged anarch.
lists. has concluded TO withdraw from both church
and society rather than be the occasion OF disrup-
ton In them. IL was his wisest course He might
now go out 10 Chicago and set up little denorn,-
nation OF his own, installing Nina Van Zandt as
deaconess and Mrs. Parsons and her 1.-TWO young
revolutionists' In some other useful capacity. A
creed based on the blessedness OF bombLth throwing.
and drawn from the gospels according to Saints
Aezeron and Most, ought to be very attractive TO
a certain class In the communicable only class
VINO LOOK upon Mr.. Pentecosts latest teachings
with any feeling but adherence.

The effort will De made at this session OF Con-
gress TO OBTAIN the legislative consent TO change
OF name OF the post-ofice Tenallytown to Tenley
town OF course the public Will continue TO know
and write Of the place as Tenleytown, as a shorter
form, and one which preserves the memory or the
Teniey after whom the place was named, whatever
the decision Of Congress may be In respect 20 this
Weighty question. When Tenleytown attains the
greatness for which destiny and the northwest
march OF improvement from Washington seem 10
intend &c, IL may, however, be confusing II the
name OF the post-ofnce varies from the popular
name Of the place.

The third and fourth class postmssters who are

masters Of all classes are 30 useful members OF the
community that their neighbors will rejoice to see

France Is full OF men whom Jules Ferry has
bitterly antagonized. The communist convicts
whom he once supposed to De securely disposed OF
In New Caledonia, are back In their old haunta
Only few OF the persons who cherish designs on
the throne have been banished from France In
spite OF all his efforts and those who remain are
In intimate communication with the direct heirs
outside Of the boundaries The ecclesiastical schools
which he set out 10 destroy In full blast under
other names and with laymen for their ostensible
heads The extreme radicals, the monarchtsts and
the clericals all OF whom regard him with an un-
dying hatred, are able to fight him on his own
ground Each party has its fanatics who
are made desperate by the eloQuence OF their
stronger headed associates and whose one idea Of
doing something for their country becomes con-
centrated, like Guiteau's, into an impulse to shed
blood This Is not the first time NJ Ferry's life has
been attempted by the agent of a revolutionary
society. In November, 1883, when he was pre-
mier, young workingman named Curieu forced
his way into the ministry OF public instruction,
and, after a vain search for the minister with
loaded revolver In hand, was disarmed BY one OF
the attendants after a fierce struggle The pros
pect OF NJ Ferrys recovery from his present injury
In not encouraging. A man fifty-five years old
does not rally as easily from o shock as a youth
and there are grave suspicious that the bullet was
poisoned, which might make even an ordinarily
innocent flesh wound fatal should he recover the
attempt upon his life will give him public sympa.
thy, and be OF advantage to him politically.

In his active campaign in behalf of himself and

In his active campaign In behalf Of himself and
the civtlrghts Law, and the elimination OF pre1u-
dice against IN colOred people in this city," MI
Hewlett should not neglect those restaurants hotels
and barter shops kept BY Washington colored
msn which refuse to serve colored customers. The
refusal 10 based Of course not ON color prejudice
but on the business consideration that the best
paying class OF customers can be retained only BY
excluding those who for any reason are obIec-
tionable 20 their fastidious notiona May not the
same business consideration, and nOtHolor pre1u-
Dice influence the white propretors OF restaurants
who have contributed or are TO contribute TO the
Police court funds under the civil nights law?
Undoubtedly the law gives the colored people the
night 70 insist upon service by both white and col
orsd restaurant-keepers and BARRIERS, II no ob1ec-
tion but their color can be urged against them;
but II color prejudice plays any part In refusal
OF these rights In o given case, the prejudice ID
not generally on the part Of the pesson refusing
the service but on the part OF fastidious CUSTOM
ers WHOSE patronage IL courted. and whose preju-
dice u not allayed but innamed by fning the
restaursnt-keeper. To make examples OF certain
restaurant-keepers, white or colored, who
wish TO cater 70 q particular class Of
customers, viii vindicate the broken civIi
rights law and call attention to MT.
Hewlett, but It will not even tend ''to eliminate
prejudice against the colored people" from the
only quarters in which it now exists. The general
and necessary use BY the colored people In COM
mon with whites Of some public agencies, street
carr for instance, and the self-restraint and self.
respect shown by the great mass Of colored people
In rsfraining from exercising many possible privi-
leges under the civil rights law In respect to
pubic agencies Of which the general use Is not
necessary and among which they may make
Judicious selection, have alike tended to dispel
race prsjudice The contact OF the races In many
public placss and the selfrespecting frestraint
which holds the colored people from other possibly
accessible places Like the white public schools, will
remove prejudice faster than Mr.. Hewlett's self
imposed martyrdom and the punishment OF the
restaurant-keepers

lunatics in Russia.

DR.. Kovaleffski, one of the most re-
nowned of Russian physicians, professor
at the Kharkoff University, has made
known some serious facts relative to
lunacy in Russia. According to the
learned professor the number of lunatics
in Russia amount to at least 100, 200.
Only one-tenth can be accommodated
in asylums, or elsewhere obtain atten-
ton. DR.. Kovaleffski says that the treat
ment of the inmates is for the greater
part defective. Rich patients alone can
obtain careful attention; the INDECENT
are too often i'll treated. The number
of really skillful doctors in the asylums
is restricted, and rational treatment is
almost out of the question. The keep
ers are for the most part rude men, who
maltreat the unfortunates if. not bribed
to kindness by relatives The pourish-
ment is insufficient and of bad quality.
Thousands of lunatics who can not be
accommodated in public or private asy-
lums walk about at large without re-
ceiving the slightest care. One meets
them everywhere on the roads in the
country. often i'll used by the heartless,
and then taking their revenge by setting
houses on fire or mutilating children,-
